Ernie Conwell Quotes
We really did feel like we were representing the city, the South and the Gulf Coast. We had people say to us, 'I might not have a house, but I have the Saints.' Football means something to people. We were shocked at how much interest there was in football. People were excited about the Saints still. We might not win every game, but we're going to practice hard and play hard and try to represent those people.

Obviously, when you have Deuce back there, defenses have to account for him all the time... I'm sure teams are going to adjust to some degree, but we are who we are. We're not going to revamp this whole offense in a week, or, for that matter, even during the course of a season.

Maybe so... but you've got to understand what it means to have a guy like that calling your offense. He's bold and unorthodox. He's always looking to go for the jugular, no matter what the book says you should do. So pretty soon you adopt a killer mentality yourself, and you're bold out there. And that's what got us where we are.
